Machinists' Feedback

Although Harvey tool has the largest selection of small cutters, there cutting geomatry quality can be disappointing at times. Today I started cutting with a #62062 4 flute ball cutter. When I pulled the part out of the machine, there was chatter marks over the whole electrode. Upon inspection of the cutter, the two secondary flutes had what effectively was a negative rake angle at the tips. I have no cutter grinding experiance, but it appears that the negative rake was from where the grinding wheel brushed the secondary flutes while grinding the primary flutes. I have talked to Harvey Tools customer service about other quality issues, and they basicaly said take it up with the distributor. I no longer bother with calling Harvey Tool. Over the last 8 years of using Harvey Tooling, once a year I come across defective cutters. I've never come across defective cutters from [...]. How about shink fit tolerancing on your .125" shank tooling. The Cutter works fine when its a good cutter.
